You have to set
MENU->Custom Function->F Stop other than A = ON.
It then should set the proper shutter speed in Green P Tv and Manual if you press the Green button.

Can a lens without an aperture ring be used on the *istD? I just tried to use my 500mm F8 Mirror lens and could not get the shutter to fire. I thought I was doing it correctly... as when using a non-A lens. Now I can't even find the instructios for how to do that, and I didn't see them mentioned on the Pentax USA sight either.

Hawk got away. :(
